Night‐To‐Night Variability in Sleep Apnea Is Associated With Persistence and Burden of Device‐Detected Atrial Fibrillation

Journal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
Device detected atrial fibrillation and sleep apnea. CV = coefficient of variation; RDI = Respiratory disturbance index. ABSTRACT Using pacemaker‐derived thoracic impedance monitoring, sleep apnea severity and its night‐to‐night variability can be continuously tracked in patients with implanted cardiac devices.

Modified Anatomical Ablation Strategy for Mitral Isthmus

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Durable mitral isthmus (MI) block remains challenging in persistent atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation. Ethanol infusion into the vein of Marshall (EI‐VOM) enhances efficacy, but the minimal endocardial ablation extent post‐EI‐VOM is undefined.

Exercise Capacity and the Force Frequency Relationship in Multi‐Point Versus Single‐Point Pacing: A Randomized Trial

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Quadripolar left ventricular (LV) epicardial leads capable of multipoint pacing (MPP) may have an advantage over conventional bipolar leads for delivering cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) by stimulating the lateral LV wall from two distinct locations simultaneously.

Interplay of Probe Stability and Oscillation During Very‐High‐Power Short‐Duration Ablation in Pulmonary Vein Isolation for Atrial Fibrillation

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
This graphical abstract presents a comprehensive analysis of probe stability and oscillation during very high‐power short‐duration (vHPSD) pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) for atrial fibrillation. The findings indicate that oscillation velocity serves as a more reliable predictor of impedance drop and temperature changes than contact force alone ...

Left Bundle Branch Area Pacing Reverts Electromechanical Window Negativity to a Similar Extent as Biventricular Pacing

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
BiVP = biventricular pacing; CRT = cardiac resynchronization therapy; EMW = electromechanical window; LBBAP = left bundle branch area pacing; QAoC = Time interval from the onset of the QRS complex to the center of the aortic valve closure artifact; QT = QT interval measured by tangent method.

Far‐infrared irradiation attenuates platelet‐derived growth factor‐stimulated vascular smooth muscle cell migration through protein phosphatase 2A‐mediated Akt inhibition

Photochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.
FIR irradiation enhances the physical association between Akt and PP2Ac in VSMCs, independent of the hyperthermal effect of FIR rays. The increased binding between Akt and PP2Ac induced by FIR irradiation facilitates the dephosphorylation of Akt at Ser473.
